/ˌɛm.briˈɒɡ.rə.fi/

Meaning and Usage

Embryography refers to the study or process of embryonic development and the documentation of developmental stages in embryos, often pertaining to both plants and animals. It combines principles of embryology and photography or imaging techniques to capture and analyze various stages of embryonic growth. This term is commonly used in scientific contexts, particularly in developmental biology and medicine.

The frequency of use is relatively low and more prevalent in academic or specialized written contexts (such as research papers) rather than everyday oral speech.

Example Sentences

  1. "The researchers utilized advanced embryography techniques to observe the early stages of cell division."

  2. "Embryography provides crucial insights into developmental processes that are fundamental to understanding congenital disabilities."
    "Эмбриография предоставляет ключевую информацию о процессах развития, которые являются основополагающими для понимания врожденных аномалий."

  3. "Using embryography, scientists can track the growth of embryos in real-time."
    "С помощью эмбриографии ученые могут отслеживать рост эмбрионов в реальном времени."

Etymology

The term "embryography" is derived from the combination of "embryo," which comes from the Greek word "embryon," meaning "young one" or "fetus," and "graphy," which originates from the Greek "graphia," meaning "writing" or "description." Therefore, "embryography" essentially denotes "the description or documentation of embryos."

Synonyms and Antonyms

Synonyms: - Embryology (though broader, it focuses on the study of embryos) - Developmental biology (covers larger scope but includes embryonic studies)

Antonyms: - Necrobiology (which studies the death processes, contrasting approaches) - Postmortem analysis (the study after death, again contrasting embryonic development)

This structured analysis provides a comprehensive understanding of the term "embryography," its implications, and related concepts.
